outdoor living - Serena & Lily - round table - covered porch - round pendant

 

We don’t know about you, but summertime is calling our names in a big, big way right now. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and we are finding every excuse we can to be outside. Fortunately, here on the North Carolina Coast, we don’t need too many excuses! And, better yet, so many of our outdoor spaces are filled with our favorite pieces from Serena and Lily, which are ALL 35% OFF RIGHT NOW. (That bears writing in all caps, right?)

Dining al fresco is one of our tip-top favorite things, and Serena & Lily’s outdoor dining tables are completely top-notch. From round to rectangular, farmhouse to formal, they have the perfect outdoor dining table for every space.

If you’re a long-time Design Chic follower, you might know that we have been adding onto our 1903 Beaufort home for a little over a year now, trying to create the perfect blend of old and new.

As a writer, my library/office was, truth be told, the most important spot to me. And the balcony off of this light-filled space was no exception.

 

 

 

I wanted chairs on the balcony that weren’t just comfortable for cocktails or friends coming by to visit. I wanted the kind of chairs where I could grab my laptop, cross my legs and feel cozy and ready to work.

This is a side porch, but, even still, any house on the water is going to get a fair amount of sun and salt, wind and rain, so I also needed pieces that were going to stand the test of time on this covered porch.

Enter: The Salt Creek Lounge Chair, pictured here with our dog, whose name is, coincidentally, Salt!

Salt, as you can see is also a big fan of these Serena & Lily floor pillows.

The minute these beautiful chairs came in, I was blown away with the quality. They’re heavy, sturdy and, as you can see… so, so cute! (Trying to decide if I got the dog to match the chairs or the chairs to match the dog… Hmmm…)

The powder-coated aluminum is made for standing up to salty conditions and the natural fiber weave couldn’t be more stylish for an outdoor porch!

Everyone in our family wants to hang out on my balcony now, which makes it every-so-slightly difficult to get my work done!

And, well, sometimes I do work out there, but, let’s be honest: I’d rather be reading! Next up on our wish list? A few of these Teak Sling Chairs for the beach and a couple Oceanpark Loungers for a side porch. (Because yellow-and-white stripe always makes us happy!) And we ALWAYS need more Serena & Lily Beach Towels. They’re our favorites!

Don’t miss out on 35% off! And do let us know what you find!
